This month brought a beautiful summer in Prague. This year we’ve been having a cooler-than-usual summer, and this July was particularly lovely, with temperatures that made it so easy and pleasant to spend time outside.

Highlights
Seeing Kendrick Lamar and SZA live in Frankfurt on the Grand National Tour! Kendrick Lamar is one of my favorite artists of all time, and I really like SZA, too. I got tickets to see them in Frankfurt in July and in Warsaw in August.

Fun times in Prague. I’m thrilled to share that Kasarna Karlín has reopened — one of my favorite unusual things to do in Prague. It’s an outdoor courtyard with a lot of bars and food places and events. We went to an outdoor evening screening of The Big Lebowski! I went in pajamas. It felt apt.

A great return to a regular fitness routine. 2025 has been rough in that regard, between six weeks in Mexico and the US (lots of heavy food), dealing with my hip injury (tough to do anything but walk at an average pace), and hosting friends and family for a few weeks…
